Ok, so it looks like this actually is an issue with how clk_round_rate()
works on this hw (atm, maybe the clk driver needs fixing).

I have added the following to debug this:

And then I get the following output:

Notice how the new-rounded just returns the current rate of the clk,
rather then a rounded value of new.

I'm not familiar enough with the clk framework to debug this further.

Peter, IMHO we really must revert your commit since it is completely
breaking UARTs on many different Intel boards. Can you please give your
ack for reverting this for now ?

Regards,

Hans


p.s.

For anyone who wants to dive into the clk_round_rate() issue deeper,
the code registering the involved clks is here:

drivers/acpi/acpi_lpss.c: register_device_clock()

And for the clocks in question fixed_clk_rate is 0 and both
the LPSS_CLK_GATE and LPSS_CLK_DIVIDER flags are set, so
for a single UART I get:

[root@fedora ~]# ls -d /sys/kernel/debug/clk/80860F0A:01*
/sys/kernel/debug/clk/80860F0A:01      /sys/kernel/debug/clk/80860F0A:01-update
/sys/kernel/debug/clk/80860F0A:01-div

With the 80860F0A:01-update clk being the clk which is
actually used / controlled by the 8250_dw.c code.
